Canada Day


There were all kinds of activities celebrating Canada Day around town. Oona and Dad and Mom went to the Family Picnic on the Commons. I don't think any of us have ever seen so many little people in one place. Besides the little people there was lots to see - a dog show, a giant inflatable whale (with an escaped toddler crawling across the top), a tank, a fire engine and lots of skateboarding.

Next we visited Citdel Hill. The Citdel is a fortress that has been restored to the mid-Victorian period with a living history program featuring the 78th Highland Regiment, the Royal Artillery, Soldier's Wives and Civilian Tradespersons. Oona even got to sit in a Victorian classroom and practice her cursive writing on an old-fashioned slate.
